Despite his decisive primary victory and impressive campaign, many Democratic lawmakers are refusing to endorse Zohran Mamdani and are spreading baseless lies and smears in the process.

Relevant rant:
📺 Why the Democratic Party CANNOT and WILL NOT be Reformed
Democrats would rather lose to a Republican, to a conservative, to a fascist, to Trump, than address the material conditions of the American people.

            JFC the more I learn about humanity, the more I wish to no longer participate in the experiment.

              on the other hand the article seems to talk about a common side effect of capitalism. humanity is more than this, it can be understood and defeated if we put our minds and effort to it.

          Ugh, I just looked it up and also couldn’t find anything. The first hit on DDG is about weather. The rest of the results are equally irrelevant.

          I don’t know if this will work, but I know I’ve seen people “@” each other on here before, so… I’ll try a shot in the dark - @[email protected] , curious minds need resources!

          (Sorry Davel, if I pinged you. I saw you refer to the technique too and typed your username instead of the thread’s OP.)

      They tried the Corbyn technique in the primaries. It didn’t stick, and that’s why they’re freaking out right now.

        I pray for his victory. The establishment centrists and their Zionist allies replaced Corbyn with a neoliberal empty suit. It has been a catastrophe for the left and killed any hope of radical change.

          At least you didn’t get PP. He’d be deporting Native Americans in a show of support to the orange menace.
